Just like with Windows, you first have to set up your work Mac for screen sharing. Press on the Apple Menu, and then press "System Preferences".
Open the “Sharing” preference panel.
Uncheck all boxes except for Remote Management. Press the Remote Management box to check it (if it is not already). It may ask you to give access controls, if it does, check all the boxes in that pop-up window and hit OK.
Click “Computer Settings…” and make sure “VNC viewers may control screen with password” is checked as well as "Show Remote Management status in menu bar". Then enter a password to use.

If you mouse to the top-middle of the window, you can spawn extra controls, which when you hover will give you a tooltip explaining what each one does.
This little toolbar will let you take actions such as close the connection, go to full-screen, and more. Hover over each button to learn what it does.
